Philip Shaw No. 19 Sauvignon Blanc 2005
Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc
Vineyard: Philip Shaw
Region: Other Australia, Australia
A pale, crystal green color. Delicate aromas of dewy mornings, gooseberry and passion fruit combined with citrus fruit and tomato leaf aromas. The palate is complex and elegant showing floral notes, racy fruit with mineral notes leading to a crisp, clean finish. Delicious now or cellar up to 5 years.
Philip Shaw No 19 Sauvignon Blanc is in memory of Philip's good friend Albert Chan, whose birthday was the 19th of August. They studied winemaking and worked together at Lindemans. Albert had the best palate of anyone I've ever known.
